Slimongo: Rise of the Slombies

Slimongo: Blog #2

After reading the last comments left on my blog, I realized it really wasn’t obvious what my game was about this is why I will clarify the purpose of Slimongo, an RPG Educational game.



Whenever a battle take place, attacking is different than most other RPG. In order to hit the opponent, the player has to type the romaji for whichever character randomly displayed on screen (in this case, ‘’ma’’).

If the answer is correct, the player hits the opponent and can chain another attack. This is the combo system. The player can keep on attacking up to a maximum of five consecutive hits. The amount of hits are then displayed as well as a different word depending on how many attacks the player managed to link in a row (think Devil May Cry).

Weaker weapons use easy words to translate to romaji (the kana) while more powerful weapons use kanji or full, complete words.

Doing combo requires Chi Points (MP) which need to be replenished by using the ‘’focus’’ command.

Agility determine how long you have to chain combos (notice the red bar on the left with the clock on top).

There is still more to be said but this will have to wait for my next blog about Slimongo: Rise of the Slombies.
